Ghost Recon Wildlands Free Weekend Is Now Live

Looking for something to play this weekend and don't want to spend any money? Ubisoft's open-world action game Ghost Recon: Wildlands will be free this weekend on PS4, Xbox One, and PC, but only for a limited time. [Update: The free weekend event is now live.]

From September 20-23, Ubisoft will offer the full game, as well as some of its PvP and PvE missions, to everyone on all platforms for free. Presumably the progress you make during the free weekend will carry forward to the full game should you decide to pick it up.

And if you do want to purchase the game, Ubisoft just announced two new versions of the game, including the Year 2 Gold Edition ($80) and the Ultimate Edition ($120). The Ultimate Edition features the Year 1 season pass that comes with the expansions Narco Road and Fallen Ghosts. It also includes the Year 2 season pass, as well as a variety of in-game extras

The Year 2 Gold Edition, meanwhile, comes with the base game and the Year 2 season pass.

In other news, Wildlands got a new update this week, Update 16, that added a new "mood" matchmaking system that allows players to select a particular "mood" for the match they are looking for. The update also adds other quality of life updates and features.
